Heat It Up! Stamp Simply Challenge

Sharon Johnson's Stamp Simply #77 challenge is to pull out those heat guns and heat emboss an image that will create a card conveying SIMPLE ELEGANCE!!! I chose to emboss and repurpose a gold jewelry box, making it perfect for a gift card.

Alternate Emboss: For those of you who may not own a heat gun, you may play using a dry embossed image achieved either by hand embossing or with a folder and Cuttlebug, etc.

Keyword is ssnotime77 - There is no time limit. You can play this challenge and upload your project at Splitcoast and/or your Blog, anytime. You can play as many times as you like, just remember to use the keyword! The point is to keep it simple, quick and have fun! Hope you play along!

For the gold embossed images I used the stamp sets, Polka Dot Basics, and Tags for Spring along with Versamark ink and SU gold embossing powder. Stamp sets, all paper and ribbon is from Papertreyink. I LOVE how the polka dots look on the box bottom! Corner tabs are made with SU word window punch and punched a second time on one end to shorten.

The monogram "s" is a JustRite preinked lower case letter! They are on sale right now for $5.00. That's right, for the entire set! What a deal! Go check it out, I love the crisp, clean letter you get EVERY time!

A quick, simple box, jazzed up with a bit of embossing, makes for a perfect gift card container.
